Historical Aspects of Cerebral Anatomy.

that their object has changed from that of the first edition, with its accent on undergraduate teaching; the aim is now to give a complete account of present thought on all aspects of the red blood cell.This has been comprehensively, as well as comprehensibly, done.The bibliography is full, and references are not biased to either side of the Atlantic.There is good fusion between physiological and clinical data (which is often lacking in smaller haematological text-books), although the descriptions of clinical manifestations do tend to chattiness.The fairly radical removal of discarded material to make way for the new is welcome, even although detailed treatment, which is most subject to fashion, is not described.This book is a must for anyone who is interested in haematology.
